The West Bengal BJP on Monday took out a candle light march to protest the killing of 40 CRPF personnel in a terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir.

Led by the party's state president Dilip Ghosh, its activists took out the procession from the BJP office in central Kolkata.

Ghosh, along with other BJP leaders, later paid floral tributes to the slain CRPF jawans.

Earlier in the day, MLAs of the state assembly, cutting across party lines, organised a similar march inside the House premises.

Bablu Santra and Sudip Biswas, hailing from Howrah and Nadia districts of West Bengal, were among the 40 CRPF personnel killed in the terror strike in Pulwama district on February 14.
